Mambo Grill

Hot South and Central American specialties and an award-winning decor define the energetic, spirited character of Mambo Grill. Traditional Latin dishes, set-off by unexpected twists and unusual sauces, are an exciting departure from the typical Mexican meal. The dark, post-modern atmosphere with its vivid cyber-Chicano iconography, adds to the fun. Special Aperitivos include Mejillones en Salsa Caribe con Vino Blanco - Mussels marinated with fresh lemon juice and olive oil, and sauteed with garlic, onions, tomatoes, cilantro, and white wine. Or Dominican Bombas de Camarones - Fried Dominican Bombas with potato, chipotle peppers, cilantro, and shrimp served with mango relish. Make sure to try one of these Main Plates: Plantain Crusted Halibut - Marinated halibut encrusted with crushed plantain chips and served atop mashed sweet potatoes with a mild jalapeqo sauce - a Cuban specialty. Or the Roasted Quail - Marinated quail with ginger, garlic, and orange juice. This Mexican specialty is roasted and with a chipotle glaze and served with boniato gratin (Cuban sweet potatoes that are mashed and then baked). (Less)
